Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers new laws taking effect in 2026, easing mortgage rates, major tariff changes, mounting concerns about President Trump's health, the radical transformation of New York City under its new socialist mayor, and fast-moving global developments from China, Ukraine, Venezuela, Iran, Spain, and the medical world. Good News for Homebuyers and New Laws for 2026: Mortgage rates opened the year at 6.15 percent, down sharply from last year. Trump's Triple B bill now allows a tax deduction of up to ten thousand dollars in interest for Made in the USA vehicles. States also rolled out new laws, including social media limits for children in Virginia and Nebraska, expanded unemployment benefits for mental health claims in Illinois, and sharply different approaches to gender dysphoria in Colorado and New Hampshire. White House Adjusts Tariffs and Deployments: The administration delayed steep tariffs on furniture and cabinetry and rolled back anti-dumping duties on Italian pasta following talks with Italy's prime minister. Trump is also withdrawing National Guard troops from Los Angeles, Chicago, and Portland after a Supreme Court ruling narrowed his authority unless he invokes the Insurrection Act. Questions About Trump's Health: The Wall Street Journal reports modest concern among Trump's family and advisors as he enters the second year of his term at age seventy-nine. Trump dismissed the worries, joking about his hearing and explaining his long-standing use of aspirin despite doctors recommending a lower dose. New York City's Radical Shift: Zohran Mamdani was sworn in as mayor of New York City, placing his hand on the Quran and naming a former al-Qaeda defense attorney as chief counsel. He was sworn in by Senator Bernie Sanders, while socialist outlet Jacobin declared the moment a chance to dismantle capitalism nationwide. Bryan argues the development represents a profound ideological takeover of America's largest city and financial center. China Escalates the Mineral Wars: Beijing is restricting silver exports through a new licensing system, tightening global supply just as it has done with rare earth minerals. China is stockpiling silver for industrial use and currency support, raising prices worldwide and intensifying competition over strategic resources. Ukraine, Venezuela, and Iran Edge Closer to Conflict: President Zelenskyy claims discussions are underway for U.S. troops to deploy to Ukraine after a peace deal, a claim the White House has not confirmed. In Venezuela, U.S. forces killed additional narco traffickers and surged elite aviation and ground units into the region as oil tankers flee sanctions. In Iran, nationwide protests entered their sixth day, with crowds chanting against the Ayatollah as economic conditions deteriorate. Europe's Populist Surge Continues: Spain's Vox Party doubled its representation in regional elections, pulling votes from Socialists while traditional conservatives resist coalition talks. Bryan notes the same elite-versus-populist split now defines politics across much of Europe. Medical Warning on Microplastics: Researchers at UC Riverside found evidence that microplastic exposure in men may increase metabolic disease risk in their children. The findings add to growing concerns about plastics, particularly when heating food in plastic containers.     "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: January 2 2026 Wright Report, mortgage rates 6.15 percent, Triple B bill tax deduction cars, new state laws 2026 social media limits, Trump tariff rollback Italian pasta, National Guard withdrawal Supreme Court, Trump health Wall Street Journal, Zohran Mamdani socialist mayor NYC, China silver export restrictions, Ukraine U.S. troops claim, Venezuela narco strikes, Iran protests Day Six, Spain Vox Party surge, microplastics metabolic disease study

Hollywood, we need to talk. If one more movie shows an eyeball dangling from someone's cheek, I might start mailing anatomy textbooks to Los Angeles. And while we're at it, can we please stop calling every wandering eye a “lazy eye”? After a quick rant about my personal ophthalmology pet peeves, I dive into one of the strangest mystery cases I've ever seen: a 47-year-old with sudden, complete ophthalmoplegia and normal imaging. Negative myasthenia testing, normal pupils, normal MRI, nothing made sense until one very specific antibody came back positive. Takeaways: Why “lazy eye” rarely means what people think it means and what the term actually refers to. The Hollywood eyeball trope that needs to be banned forever (optical nerves are short, folks). How a patient with zero eye movement and a normal MRI sent us searching for rare neuro clues. Why myasthenia gravis seemed like the obvious answer until every serology test came back negative. The surprising role a GI infection can play in triggering Miller Fisher syndrome, the rare Guillain-Barré variant that ultimately cracked the case.

When Heidi left the game, she said that she would call her son later, but even though she ALWAYS talked to him every day she never called him. In fact Bond never talked to his mother again.

In today's episode, Becket Cook talks with former gay man Josh Duiker who shares his powerful testimony of leaving the LGBTQ lifestyle after a dramatic encounter with Jesus at age 40. From growing up secular and struggling with same-sex attraction, addiction, and promiscuity in Los Angeles, to attending a progressive gay-affirming church in Hollywood, Josh reveals how he discovered it was a false gospel and ultimately found true freedom at a biblical church. In this emotional interview, Josh opens up about his radical salvation experience alone in his apartment, why progressive "gay Christianity" couldn't satisfy his hunger for truth, how reading Scripture and solid preaching exposed the deception, leaving the gay lifestyle, facing backlash from friends and family, and embracing biblical faith. A must-listen story of redemption, grace, and the transforming power of the real Jesus Christ.

Ele nasceu em São Paulo e, aos dois anos, mudou-se com a família para Bebedouro, onde passou a infância. Começou a nadar aos quatro anos e, ainda criança, participou das primeiras competições. Em 1999 venceu uma etapa regional do Troféu Gustavo Borges, resultado que marcou seus anos na natação competitiva. Aos quatorze anos convenceu a mãe a deixá-lo mudar-se sozinho para Ribeirão Preto em busca do sonho olímpico. Alguns anos depois percebeu que seu futuro não seria nas piscinas e decidiu focar nos estudos para o vestibular. Ingressou na faculdade de medicina da USP de Ribeirão Preto, nadou pouco, mas praticou handebol e futebol. Após um ano sabático em Londres, onde trabalhou como bike courier, voltou ao Brasil, concluiu a faculdade e foi aprovado na residência de oftalmologia. Voltou a nadar e conheceu uma triatleta que despertou nele o interesse pela modalidade. Quando finalmente pôde comprar uma bicicleta, passou a treinar para o triathlon e estreou em 2013, em Pirassununga. No ano seguinte completou sua primeira maratona e também seu primeiro meio Ironman. Em 2015 concluiu a residência e passou mais um ano sabático, desta vez na praia de Maresias. Motivado pelo triathlon, voltou decidido a iniciar uma nova residência, agora em Medicina do Esporte na UNIFESP. Simultaneamente ingressou no doutorado em fisiologia do exercício e passou a trabalhar com a seleção brasileira de natação. Em 2019 disputou seus primeiros campeonatos mundiais, de Ironman 70.3 em Nice e da ITU de Lausanne. Doutorado concluído, em 2021 foi convidado pelo amigo Victor Castello Branco a participar da criação da Z2 Foods, mesmo ano em que mudou-se para Curitiba para trabalhar no Club Athletico Paranaense. A falta de uma rotina que lhe permitisse manter seu estilo de vida praticando triathlon o levou a deixar o futebol e retornar a São Paulo, decidido a lançar o projeto Meu Doc. Aqui retomou o controle da própria agenda e viveu uma temporada marcante no triathlon, estreando em um Ironman, que concluiu abaixo de dez horas. Conquistou a terceira colocação no Ironman 70.3 de São Paulo, participou do Mundial de Ironman em Kona e estreou no Patagonman. Em 2023 correu a Maratona de Boston e venceu o Challenge Floripa entre os amadores. No ano seguinte registrou seu melhor tempo de maratona, em Tóquio, e iniciou o trabalho como docente no Centro Universitário São Camilo. Em 2025 alcançou sua melhor colocação em um Ironman, conquistando o segundo lugar no Japão, e recentemente correu 85 km em sua primeira backyard. Conosco aqui, o médico do esporte, doutor em fisiologia do exercício, médico da seleção brasileira de natação com três participações olímpicas, professor, empreendedor e criador do Meu Doc, que apesar de gostar mais da medicina do que do triathlon, não vive sem o esporte. Um triatleta amador de alta performance e maratonista, o paulistano Paulo José Gomes Puccinelli. Inspire-se!

In a statement on Truth Social on Wednesday, President Donald Trump said he will withdraw National Guard troops from multiple U.S. cities, including Chicago, Los Angeles, and Portland. He said crime has been “greatly reduced by having these great Patriots in those cities.” The announcement came after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Trump could not deploy National Guard troops to protect federal immigration agents.The White House says it is ramping up resources to hold people accountable for alleged rampant fraud in Minnesota. The Department of Health and Human Services says it's freezing all child care payments to the state and putting additional safeguards in place.Moscow today released video footage of a downed drone, two days after accusing Ukraine of launching more than 90 drones in an alleged attack on Russian President Vladimir Putin's residence. Trump told reporters, "I was very angry about it." The United States is still working to find out what happened, he said.

President Trump says he's dropping his push to use federalized National Guard troops in Los Angeles, for now. What's the fate of this year's local polar plunge following a coastal sewage spill?

Parking, quite literally, has a death grip on America: each year a handful of Americans are tragically killed by their fellow citizens over parking spots. But even when we don't resort to violence, we routinely do ridiculous things for parking, contorting our professional, social, and financial lives to get a spot. Indeed, in the century since the advent of the car, we have deformed--and in some cases demolished--our homes and our cities in a Sisyphean quest for cheap and convenient car storage. As a result, much of the nation's most valuable real estate is now devoted exclusively to empty and idle vehicles, even as so many Americans struggle to find affordable housing. Parking determines the design of new buildings and the fate of old ones, patterns of traffic and the viability of transit, neighborhood politics and municipal finance, the quality of public space, and even the course of floodwaters. Can this really be the best use of our finite resources and space? Why have we done this to the places we love? Is parking really more important than anything else? These are the questions Slate staff writer Henry Grabar sets out to answer, telling a mesmerizing story about the strange and wonderful superorganism that is the modern American city. In Paved Paradise: How Parking Explains the World (Penguin, 2023), Grabar brilliantly surveys the pain points of the nation's parking crisis, from Los Angeles to Disney World to New York, stopping at every major American city in between. He reveals how the pathological compulsion for car storage has exacerbated some of our most acute problems--from housing affordability to the accelerating global climate disaster--ultimately, lighting the way for us to free our cities from parking's cruel yoke. Brian Hamilton is a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Wisconsin–Madison where he is researching African American environmental history.

On https://rushtoreason.com, guest host Andy Peth fills in for John Rush and is joined by Tanner Coleman. Together, they deliver a fast-paced, unapologetic Hour 1. The pair set the tone for a no-nonsense conversation about culture, leadership, and values. As the year winds down, the discussion starts with humor and reflection. Then, they focus on California's political direction—new laws, wildfire mismanagement, and what critics call a growing gap between common sense and governance. The hour then sharpens its focus on border security, patriotism, and race. The hosts push back against claims from Los Angeles leadership about Hispanic Border Patrol agents. Are these men and women motivated by money, or by love of country and respect for the rule of law? Using real quotes, vivid analogies, and pointed questions, Andy and Tanner challenge listeners. They urge the audience to reconsider media narratives and the real-world consequences of mass illegal immigration. The conversation shifts again. This time, it moves to culture and morality. Humor explores a serious question: do we still teach why things are wrong, or just warn of consequences? That thread sets up the next topics: wealth, taxes, voting, and whether “fairness” quietly replaced personal responsibility. HOUR 2 Andy returns for a hard-hitting Hour 2 alongside Tanner, opening with an intense deep dive into the massive Minnesota fraud scandal tied to COVID-era programs. How did billions in taxpayer dollars allegedly vanish—and why were whistleblowers ignored or silenced? Andy and Tanner argue this wasn't just a bureaucratic failure, but a political one, repeatedly questioning the role of Tim Walz and asking how accountability might look if a different political movement were involved. Mid-hour, the tone shifts as Richard Rush joins the show, bringing weekly NFL picks, playoff implications, and late-season drama. Which teams are collapsing at the worst possible time—and which quarterbacks are carrying franchises on their backs? From draft positioning to coaching courage, the sports conversation mirrors the political theme: leadership matters, mindset matters, and excuses only go so far. Blending sharp analysis, dark humor, and rapid-fire debate, Hour 2 challenges listeners to question media narratives, political double standards, and even how success—or failure—is measured, whether in government or on the field. HOUR 3 Andy Peth and Tanner return for a politically charged Hour 3 with special guest Eli Bremer, taking a hard look at the future of Republican politics in Colorado and beyond. What happens when party unity breaks down—and who pays the price when candidates prioritize personal brand over winning elections? The hour opens with a candid discussion about internal GOP fractures, performative politics, and the fallout surrounding Marjorie Taylor Greene, raising tough questions about loyalty, teamwork, and governing with slim majorities. The conversation then shifts to Colorado, where Eli walks through the importance of vetting candidates in competitive districts like CD8 and CD3, highlighting incumbents Gabe Evans and Jeff Hurd—and warning how fringe challengers can jeopardize winnable seats. The hour crescendos with a blunt assessment of Joe Altman's newly announced gubernatorial run, exploring how extreme rhetoric and unchecked behavior can turn a difficult race into a political disaster. The message is clear: in a purple state, credibility, discipline, and strategy matter—or the consequences will be severe.

Oprah sits down with the Rev. Ed Bacon, a retired priest from the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles and the author of the book "8 Habits of Love." Saying that we often obscure our ability to identify grace in our lives, the Rev. Bacon reveals how to recognize grace in your life, especially during the toughest times. He tells Oprah that people operate from a place of either fear or love when it comes to their relationship with God, and explains why he believes there is a bit of God in all of us and why we should embrace it. Plus, the Rev. Bacon offers a surprising and enlightening answer to the question of whether religion and spirituality can work together. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
